FAU MoD Lecture. Special May 2025

Date: Fri. May 2, 2025
Event: FAU MoD Lecture Series (Special double edition. May 2025)
Organized by: FAU MoD, the Research Center for Mathematics of Data at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (Germany)

Session 01: 10:00H
FAU MoD Lecture: Random Batch Methods for classical and quantum molecular dynamics
Speaker: Prof. Dr. Shi Jin
Affiliation: SJTU, Shanghai Jiao Tong University (China)

Abstract. Random batch methods were introduced for general interacting particle systems with large number (N>>1) of particles, with a linear complexity of O(N). We extend this method to molecular dynamics with Coulomb interactions, in the framework of Ewald summation. We will show its superior performance compared to the current state-of-the-art methods (for example PPPM) for the corresponding problems, in both computational efficiency and parallelizability. We use it not only to reduce the cost of long range interactions but also the short-range ones, and as a result we are able to simulate 10 million molecules with just one GPU. We also extend it to quantum Monte-Carlo simulation.

Session 02: 10:50H

OUR SPEAKERS

Shi Jin is the Director of Institute of Natural Sciences, and Chair Professor of Mathematics, at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. He was a department chair and Vilas Distinguished Achievement Professor at University of Wisconsin-Madison, and Chair of Department of Mathematics at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. He also serves as a co-director of the Shanghai National Center for Applied Mathematics, director of Ministry of Education Key Lab on Scientific and Engineering Computing, and director of Shanghai Jiao Tong University Chongqing Artificial Intelligence Institute.

He is an inaugural Fellow of the American Mathematical Society (AMS) (2012), a Fellow of Society of Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) (2013), an inaugural Fellow of the Chinese Society of Industrial and Applied Mathematics (CSIAM) (2020), and an Invited Speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in 2018. In 2021 he was elected a Foreign Member of Academia Europaea and a Fellow of European Academy of Sciences. In 2024 he won a
Shanghai Natural Science Prize (first class) for his works in random batch methods for interacting particle systems and molecular dynamics.

His research interests include scientific computing, computational physics, machine learning and quantum computing, etc.
